NJCU Public Safety personnel will coordinate with JC Emergency Personnel to assist as needed. All Public Safety Personnel are trained in First-Aid, CPR and AED and will assist until emergency services arrive. Do not attempt to move an injured person until Public Safety personnel arrive.

If possible, please describe:

nature of injury

name of injured party

age of injured party

if the injured party is conscious or breathing

If 911 has already been contacted, please contact Public Safety so that they may coordinate and assist with their arrival to the emergency scene.

If emergency services should arrive on campus without Public Safety's knowledge, valuable time may be lost.

Crime in Progress:

Contact Public Safety immediately with location and information. Do NOT attempt to engage the perpetrator as he or she may be armed and dangerous.

Suspicious Person:

Please contact Public Safety and note the location and description of the person. Public Safety will make contact and take action as necessary.
